OK I'm happy to see it's not just me who thought of Oreo cookies when I saw double stuffed. As a matter of fact, my husband bought some double stuffed chocolate cream oreo cookies yesterday. Personally, I thought YUCK but that's a long story. I would have to tell you all about my adventures in Spain and getting Oreo cookies every day for lunch! ANYWAYS... Before April ends Swagbucks is

Yes, I'm an Avengers fan! I just shared the Thor trailer yesterday and today I have a clip from Iron Man 3 (which I must add was filmed a few hours away from me in Wilmington, NC Woot!Woot!) Don't forget it's going to be in theaters May 3!!!

Let's just start with a fact: Food insecure (meaning you don't know where your next meal is coming from) households are 15 times more likely than food secure households to have obtained food from a food pantry. Food insecure households are also 19 times more likely than food secure households to have eaten a meal at an emergency kitchen this year. (taken from the CFK SIMPLE service project

My kids are now in tons of activities and we're always on the go. We rush from school, to speech class, to T-ball to Cubbies... the list goes on and on. And what happens? We don't have time to eat. So constantly I hear, "I'm hungry", "can we go to McDonald's?" I don't want to give them junk because we are now eating healthy and organic in our house. I have organic fruit delivered to our house but

Well, with this crazy weather I'm not even sure if spring is actually going to come. We're in NC and yesterday it was low 70s and high 60s. Today I woke up and friends from my hometown (also in NC) said it was sleeting this morning! Not to mention the HIGH for today is only 43 in my area! What the heck is going on?? All I know is when the weather gets crazy, my skin gets crazy. It's already

As a blogger, I know how much of a pain and stress filing taxes can be! There is so much to remember, so much to save, so much to be accountable for... Just thinking about everything makes my head almost explode. Personally, my family uses a tax accountant to do our taxes. However, in this new digital age many people are opting for using online resources to save money and time. If you're one of

The weather is getting warmer and the first thing I think about is opening the windows, letting in the fresh air and starting some spring cleaning. Honestly, there's only one real thing I can tell you about spring cleaning, "I'm not very good at it!" LOL I have this great kitchen in our house and I love it. It has a beautiful island with a sink in the middle and stainless steel appliances.

I remember growing up hearing, "Don't play with your food, just eat it"! I'm happy to say that times are changing and sometimes it can be okay to play with your food. Heck, I even believe it helps get children more interested in eating their food if they think it's fun or cool! I have two picky eaters so anything that makes eating more fun or easier for me is a winner. It's great to see big

Well I figured I should change my name. Maybe it's because I hear "Mommy" 24/7. I was going to say not literally 24/7 but actually I think it is 24/7. I even hear "Mommy" in my dreams. Or maybe I should change it because I don't even remember what my real name actually is. I almost wrote Mommy on something I had to sign yesterday. It all began with two sick kids.

I'm all about downloading educational apps for the kids, especially when they are FREE! If you or your kids are big Eric Carle fans then you are going to LOVE this app. It's called Counting with The Very Hungry Caterpillar and it's FREE today for Apple and Android users.

Last week was my birthday! Yes, as you notice I didn't say how old I was but it was my birthday. We're working on being really frugal in my family so I didn't want them to throw me a party or anything. Of course, my husband listened...to an extent. He decorated the kitchen, got me two small presents and a cake. Little did he know that I would have the supplies to help accessorize this party. Yep
